Okay, I wasn't going to share this because I'm slightly embarrassed by how not balanced this is to eat for lunch, but it's delicious and I love it, and I do eat it for lunch, so I figured I'd share in case anyone else occasionally likes to indulge with something that's pretty much a dessert as their midday main course! —fiveandspice

I love the toasted idea and would have no guilt at all enjoying this combination!

Thanks! I definitely do recommend toasting - it makes everything warm and spicy and melty.

Salty and sweet...I love these flavors, thanks for an "out of the box" approach to a great lunch (or snack for that matter).
fiveandspice September 29, 2010
Haha, pun very much appreciated! Thanks.

My four year old just started eating brie AND she loves pumpkin bread..this is a must try for her - especially since I can only pack her dairy lunches! Thanks for the wonderful idea!!!!
fiveandspice September 29, 2010
Your four year old sounds like she has very excellent taste! I hope she gives it the thumbs up.
KitchenKim October 2, 2010
I will let you know what she thinks:).

sweet pumpkin bread? looks like a yeast bread, please clarify
you are clearly a lunch genius
fiveandspice September 28, 2010
Well, first off thanks! I don't know if I can quite claim the title of "lunch genius", but I do know that I start looking forward to lunch from the moment I arrive at my office :).
And second, I definitely use sweet pumpkin bread - which is why it's a little decadent to have for lunch, think second cousin of a pumpkin cheesecake - but I'm sure it would be delicious with a pumpkin yeast bread as well. I was actually just thinking about baking a yeast bread, so I may give that a try.

Are you kidding?!! This is incredibly nutritious . . . veggies and fiber in the bread, all kinds of vitamins and other nutrients in the grains, plus protein, calcium, etc. in the cheese. Life is for enjoying. I love this recipe! ;o)

I agree with AJ! YUM. I would never think to pair pumpkin with brie but will now! Thanks for the recipe.
fiveandspice September 28, 2010
Thanks AJ and gingerroot!! I feel much better having your approval :0)!
